We
believe that there is a radical and essential difference
between the righteous and the wicked. Only those who are
justified by faith in our Lord Jesus Christ and sanctified
by the Spirit of our God are truly righteous in His esteem,
while all such as continue in unbelief are in His sight
wicked and under the curse. This distinction holds among men
both in this life and after death, in the everlasting
contentment of the saved and the everlasting, conscious
suffering of the lost in the Lake of Fire.
